“How the emWave PC System Can Help”
You can use the emWave PC technology to help you learn internal awareness, self-regulation and emotional management skills. You can learn to prevent stress by becoming aware of when the stress response starts and stopping it in the moment.
The emWave PC technology is an easy-to-use software program with a heart rhythm monitor. The system is an innovative approach to stress relief based on learning to change the heart rhythm pattern and create physiological coherence in the body.
With this program you can see how your thoughts and emotions affect your heart and nervous system through the user friendly graphics displayed on your computer monitor. When stressed, your heart rhythms have an irregular, jagged incoherent pattern. When you shift to a more positive emotional state, the heart rhythm pattern changes to a smoother, wave-like coherent pattern. By seeing the visual change on the screen and associating it with a more peaceful, calm internal state, you learn to manage stress and maintain a state of physiological coherence and balance.”
